    I've always wanted a 90s MR2 or a Honda NSX.

    The problem is that they hardly depreciated.

    Achievable or dream?

    My current object of desire is a TVR Griffith 500, big V8 in a lovely TVR body. Last week it was a HSV Maloo, next week I'll probably be back to wanting a bugeye Impreza STi again.

    Not very original, but Eleanor (Shelby GT500E) would do it for me. I have always liked AC Cobra's as well.. but if I could have only one car (and if I could afford the petrol, insurance, taxes), it would probably have to be an Audi RS6 Avant...

    A long line of Fiat 500's.
    *Trollface*

    Seriously though, when I'm old enough to drive, I seriously wouldn't mind one, and a restored Vespa would be nice. :)

    Wait, I forgot, a Vespa isn't a car. Oh well. :p

    XJ220, classic, yet modern.

    Learned to drive in a Fiat 500, nice cars but damn slow.

    Zenvo ST1

    No competition.

    More achievable would be an Aston Martin DB9

    Realistically, one of these would be nice:
    2001 Dodge Viper GTS
    2012 Porsche 911 C2S 991 ( in 2015 when I can actually afford it :( )
    2012 Audi TT RS
    2012 Nissan GTR ( again in 2015 when I can actually afford it )

    Dream cars:
    Lexus LFA
    Ferrari F430
    Lamborghini Aventador
    Ford GT

    I quite agree, that is the right Eleanor BUT (and despite the original movie being whole magnitudes better) the car from the remake is much better looking. That original one appears to have the grille and lights from an Austin Allegro for a start :p

    Oh dream cars? Well I'd want an F40, an XJ220 (the original V12 version), an F50, a 512BB, Lancia Delta HF Intergrale, R34 Nissan Skyline, Toyota Supra, 458 Italia, Mazda RX-7, and an MX-5.

    Oh also a Dauer 962.
